Fashion forward or fashion faux pas? Here’s how to work the look this winter and avoid double denim disaster.

Do:

Do mix lighter denim and darker denim.
Do go for fitted denim jeans and loose denim tops - or visa versa.
Do break it up - putting denim directly on denim can be a disaster. Add some pale or pastel colours and mix it up.
Do add a belt or scarf to lighten your denim blues.
Do wear your denim shirt open and loose if you’re pairing with skinny leg style jeans.
Do try denim shorts and skirts - they’re more versatile when approaching the double denim trend.

Don’t

Don’t step foot near bulky denim jackets. It’s for your own good.
Don’t attempt head to toe denim. You’ll end up looking like the 5th member of the 90’s pop group B*Witched.
Don’t allow yourself to become the butt of cowboy jokes - steer clear of western accessories and boots when donning the double denim.
Don’t adopt a matchy-matchy look - instead work different denim washes and colour palettes.
Don’t consider jodhpur or harem denim styles - they are style statement enough on their own.
Don’t go overboard on accessories - keep it simple sister.
Don’t pull your old denim overalls out of the wardrobe - some things are better left in the past.
